Winery Review: Smooth and medium bodied, with very dark and intense purple color. Its finish is with coco and white chocolate with some hints of spice and dark red fruit. 50% aged in neutral oak barrels and 50% in stainless tanks with no oak contact.

My Review: Very enjoyable! This red has a chocolate aroma and a deep red color. It is has an earthy finish and intense grape flavor that I found very satisfying. This wine has plenty of personality with earthy notes and intense body with hints of coco. I would recommend enjoying this wine with pasta, pizza or red meat. I tasted this wine with sausage and pepperoni pizza. The pepperoni tasted a bit more peppery and spicy when combined with the wine in my mouth.
Great local wine
